The trans teen who sued his school - and won

"I hope we've now moved past the need to have courts saying trans people should be respected and treated normally."

Drew Adams, a trans man, has spent the past three years fighting for transgender students to be allowed to use bathrooms at school that match their gender identity.

It came about after Drew, at the age of 14, was told by his school in Florida that he wasn't allowed to use the men's bathroom.

A federal court has now ruled in Drew's favour in the first US trial involving a transgender student's access to bathrooms. The ruling applies to Florida, Georgia and Alabama.

"I knew I had an obligation to people hiding their true trans identity, because there are so many people who don't have accepting families," Drew, who's now 19, tells Radio 1 Newsbeat.

"And if they don't have their families, and they don't have their school, who do they have?"
